I have a much shorter list:

ps -fu `id -un` | grep gpg
anne      2871     1  0 11:05 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/gpg-agent -s --daemon
anne      2989     1  0 11:06 ?        00:00:01 kgpg -session 
104141310000123427948300000056040013_1234811693_685431
anne      3345  3257  0 11:13 pts/1    00:00:00 grep gpg

All checked.  The config files are exactly the same as on other boxes where I 
don't see the problem.

Yes, kmail seems to be working fine.  Kgpg also does whatever I ask it to.  It 
also adds to its management page any keys that I import either through kgpg or 
the CLI.  What it doesn't do is display the keys that kmail has automatically 
imported.  This is a problem I'm only seeing on this one, Fedora10, 
installation.

Hmm - just realised that many recent message have the following:

Message was signed on 02/02/2009 01:43 with unknown key 0xsomething.
The validity of the signature cannot be verified.
Status: No public key to verify the signature

I guess that kmail is not respecting the setting to import the signatures, if 
all recent 'new' sigs are like this.  Maybe that's a packaging bug that needs 
to be reported.

Funny how an unrelated suggestion can cause us to break the circle of thinking 
:-)
